Description

Dogged Utopia Productions is proud to present:  

TONYA & NANCY: THE ROCK OPERA
Directed by Mark Jones
Music Direction by Kelly Jackson
Choreography by Jessica Garland-Lowe

TONYA & NANCY: THE ROCK OPERA is a high-energy, darkly comic musical that reimagines the infamous 1994 figure-skating scandal with over-the-top theatrical flair. Packed with powerhouse rock anthems, biting satire, and unexpected heart, the show dives into the chaotic collision of talent, ambition, media frenzy, and American celebrity culture. It transforms the real-life rivalry between Tonya Harding and Nancy Kerrigan into a fast, funny, and emotionally charged spectacle—equal parts tabloid circus and human story. Bold, irreverent, and unforgettable, this rock opera invites audiences to relive the drama like they’ve never seen it before.
